What nations or people are so favored as to have God as close as Catholics? Nothing is so precious as the Holy Eucharist, truly a memorial of that exceedingly great love which Christ showed for us during His suffering. Hence it is fitting to have Eucharistic processions rendering Him due honor. Yet remember the dangers of complacency and worldliness, lest we follow the path of the Israelites of old. God granted them victory over Jericho following a proper procession with the Ark (God's presence in their midst); yet when they used that same Ark as their tool, they were roundly defeated by the Philistines and lost the Ark. Lukewarm Catholics want to be friends with the world and embrace its ways. Lacking piety and devotion, they don't live the faith fully and tend towards the things of God's on their terms or for their ends. If we wish to survive the spiritual wasteland we live in, we must cultivate a strong, authentic devotion to the Holy Eucharist.
